Full Episode
Today, we're talking about emergency funds, and more importantly, and more entertaining, the weird things people have spent their emergency fund on.
I used the emergency fund because I had to bail my brother out of jail.
Ooh. Raccoon removal. Oh! It cost $99 per raccoon.
Hey, guys, I'm Rachel Cruz.
I'm George Camel.
And this is... Smart Money Happy Hour. Well, this is the show where two friends who happen to be money experts talk about what you're talking about. Everything from pop culture, current events, and money.
We're sipping on a Cubanada. Ooh. And we're going to give you the rating and reveal the cost per glass at the end of the episode, so stick around for that.
That sounds so fun. Okay, so this episode kind of started because one of my friends got in a car wreck. Not a bad one. Everyone's okay. But it was on this highway in Nashville in 96, if you're a Nashville person in Franklin. And at a stoplight and she gets hit. Well, the guy keeps going. So she's like, no, no, no, no. You just hit me. You just hit me.
And so she ends up at a stoplight and he's like a car ahead of her. So she gets out of her car at the stoplight, like taps on the window. She's like, It's not loud. I thought that was going to have a sound effect.
